What is the best cut for fries? I tend to lean towards wedge

>>8088355

waffle fries are great. I love them with chili for whatever reason

Tots

curly fry- good amount of crunch, chew and soft potato-y textures

Crinkle cut, why is this a question?

curly is kino

>>8088921
This guy gets it

Shoe string.

If you're not eating waffle fries then why even bother?

plain thick cut with spice

Crinkle cut is objectively best.

>thick meaty fry with maximum surface area for more crisp
>ridged surface is perfect for holding onto dipping sauces

It gets a bad wrap because it is often cooked incorrectly. Often they are served soft, soggy and unseasoned. When they are piping hot and crispy it is tip top tier fry.

Tots as long as they are crispy and not incredibly soft.

Otherwise shoestring.

>>8088355
curly, wedge are good too

i hate waffle fries.

Steak cut

>>8088355

frites are best, followed by dutch fries

Depends on how they are prepped, and what they are being served with.

Also, wedges are too meaty to eat plain. Only good if they are well seasoned or battered. Fight me.

Lattice and curly
Bonus for batter and breading

gotta be curly

>>8088355
waffle and curly are top 2. the order can be either or 2bh

crinkle fries are my favorite food

Slice potato in half.
Place sliced sides down, slice into 1-2cm slices.
Slice potato slices into chips so they have a square cross-section, with wedge-shaped ones for the lumpy bits of the potato.

Who seriously buys pre-made chips? Potatoes exist.

Wedges require certain batters, like onion rings, so they can vary.
Crinkle cut fries are grand when done right, and still good when not.
Regular fries are just regular, and a nice standard.
Waffle was never really my thing, but it was not bad.

Overall, I'd say wedges or crinkle.

>>8088355
Tots no doubt, family

>>8088355
WV here, they deep fry russet wedges in chicken breading here. Salty but dank.

crinkle cut is for fucking PLEBS

Come on now, when done right crinkle cut is pretty based, easiest to fuck up and make gross though.

>>8088355
Waffle fries for chili
Wedges when eating any kind of BBQ
Twisty if getting fast food
Croquettes for when you're having a roast
Crinkle cut for everything else, though straight cut is also fine.

Yeah. And when not engaged in criminal activity, blacks are pretty law-abiding. The fact of the matter is: blacks break laws and crinkle cut is never done right.

Those shapes maximizes surface:mass ratio what takes it down?

Steak cut because I don't like them being too salty/fatty. But then again I don't really like fries that much.

Why is nobody mentioning these? Do they not have it in the US? Don't know what it's called in English though, we call them boat fries and they are literally the best.

>>8091897

>>8091897
These are steak fries.

>>8091984

>>8088921
Crispy crinkle is best

Seasoned fries of any kind win.
But I like curly and wedges.

>>8092006
Wedge steaks?

>>8091897
Wut? they are like U shaped. Probably perfect for picking up dipping sauce.

would u stick a fry in a girls butt then eat it?

>>8092034
Depends on the grill but yes

>>8091897

those

Speaking about fries, does anyone have any experience with electric fryers? are they worth it?

>>8090997
Popeyes fries are the most underrated fast food fry in the game.

>>8093626
>any experience with electric fryers?

Yes. They are awesome. Perfect temperature control without having to mess with a thermometer or adjust a knob.

Research models before you buy. Some are better than others. My advice is to buy a small commercial model. Those have two advantages:
1) they're super easy to clean
2) the heating element is raised above the bottom of the oil container. That means that crumbs and whatnot fall below it where the oil is a bit cooler. That keeps your oil lasting longer before you have to replace it.

>>8088355
Shoe string or waffle

>>8093626
Don't EVER use them on a surface with any sort of liquid on it.
My mother did that once. Bang, small explosion from the electronics, blown fuses all the way through, thing was junked.

>>8092013
Literally every place that serves crinkle cut fries either undercookes them and they are soft on the outside and hard on the inside, or overcooks them so that after being out of the fryer longer than 5 minutes, they turn into soggy mush.
